Grain. Provisions nnd Grocerley.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Dec. 3.--Thcrc was more
settled feeling in the gruins at the opening
on change this morning, first sales being at
exactly Yesterdays closing prices, or S519c
for May wheat. But it was strong never
theless and within ten minutes got up TO
1Bc. Corn was also inclined TO be bull
ish market, opening at 5i5sc for May, selling
up to 9ac, then weakening to &c, recovering
later and going up TO &c. January pork
opened at Sli on and advanced l0c within
as many minutes. AT the end of the first
hours business the country contingent was
ahead.
Provisions were the most quiet deal Of all,
but the strength in corn lirmed January
pork up TO IA M, but IL too became steady
with the other markets and was firm around
ga 40. Indications were that comparatively
little trading would be done until after Mon
days visible supply statement had been
made public. After May reached S6l9c it
weakened back to about $3.50, and after be-
came very steady.
Corn held its own and was a steady market
all day. Reports of greater damage than has
been previously reported are brought up
from southwest Missouri. Kansas and Ne
braska by parties recently travelling through
those sections. They say hogs are also
short crop. The effect Is TO inspire belief
that prices all around are going TO be higher.
The leading futures ranged as follows
